Take a look at this discussion from these 3 viewpoints. Consider the standards, wages, benefits and expectations union membership entails. Re-consider your ability to undercut other drivers and O/O's if you aren't working through an organized body. Would you leave the expediting industry if it...

The Tigers had over a week to prepare for a team that entered the playoffs with fewer wins as a divisional title holder than any in the history of baseball. Sans wild card entries. The tigers gave up base after base, run after run through error after error. They were,nt unprepared in basic...

There are more union bargaining units than the UAW or the Teamsters. There are tangents of both which serve their members very well. It's also a very rare incident in deed when a union contracted business slides into disrepair. This takes place much more often with non-union contracted business.

I know I could go to a cardio doc and get the entire exam done yet the process has already begun. Began by using the company's...

I went through the standard DOT medical exam today. The company paid for this physical. When the Doc saw I had bypass surgery 4 years ago she wants a recent, it's been 3 years, Cardiologist's exam as well as a stress test before she'll sign me off. I'm a state away from my Cardiologist's office...
